I've read it. It is informative and has good advice, but it is very repetitive.

My five steps. 1. Pay yourself 20% of after tax money. 2. Invest it in broadly diversified low cost index funds. 3. Always reinvest the divendends. 4. Do if for long term (20-40+ years) 5. Automate steps 1-4 Personal finance is not hard. It's boring, repetitive, and behavioural. Lastly never borrow consumer debt.

It’s what got me started 15 years ago! Easy great advice. This whole thing is more mental than anything. Get a plan and stick to it. You can do it.
